Pros

Great management, excellent safety training, some awesome regulars. A good friendly work environment makes up for the often unpleasant customers.

Cons

Minimum wage and management is only 50 cents above minimum. Sometimes unrealistic sales expectations. Much more upset customers than most retail jobs.

Pros

Great employer, progressive on safety. The ''Shell Students Society'' organizes field trips, lunches and after work drinks for students. And is a great way to get to know other students. The overall language is English, a lot of students do a assessed internship, with hope for a future career at shell.

Cons

Most graduate positions are in the Netherlands, very few in the UK. And the salary is relatively low.
